Your Tylenol with Codeine #3 will last you 6 days
by: David

Tylenol with Codeine #3 contains 300mg of Tylenol and 30mg of Codeine. Adults should not take more than 1000mg of Tylenol as one dose from all sources. According to the directions you gave me, which are on your prescription, you are instructed by your prescriber to take 1-2 tabs every 6 hours as needed. With this SIG, you can take up to 8 tablets daily. If you divide 40 (which is the total number of tablets you are provided by the pharmacy) by 8 (which is the maximum number of tablets you can take every 24 hours), you get 6 with a remainder. When figuring days supply, you always round down, never up. And you always want full days, never partial days. So the answer to your question is 6 days supply.

Thank you for your question! Take care!
